Creekside Bluff Primitive Camping is tucked away on Mowbray Mountain, overlooking the Soddy-Daisy Valley. Just 26 minutes from downtown Chattanooga, this secluded campsite is surrounded by woods, bordered by a peaceful creek and a beautiful bluff line, offering a true back-to-nature experience. If you're into rock climbing or hiking, this is your ideal base camp. The property is just minutes from some of the best climbing and hiking access on the Cumberland Trail, with Mowbray Mountain offering miles of rugged terrain to explore. Even better, North Chickamauga Creek Gorge State Park is only 10 minutes away and features a refreshing blue hole — perfect for cooling off after a day on the trail.

Whether you're here to climb, hike, or just disconnect and relax in nature, Creekside Bluff is a peaceful, private escape in the heart of Tennessee’s wild beauty.The site is a level spot on the bluff with beautiful morning views. There are good trees for hammocks, perfect for relaxing. This is a primitive site, so please pack in what you need and pack out everything when you leave.

Beautiful spot with a great view and plenty of space, would definitely visit again. Wasn’t able to take my transit down the road to the bluff but it’s only a short walk from parking.

Gretta’s Bluff Hammock & Tent Site

Gretta's place was really delightful! The road getting in is a bit difficult for low cars and the road down to the bluff definitely would need 4 wheel drive. The firepit was nice, along with the table and chairs and the bluff view and creek were very lovely! I would definitely go back!
